4. If then ye have judgments as to things of this life, set those to judge who are little esteemed in the assembly.
5. I speak to you to put you to shame. Thus there is not a wise person among you, not even one, who shall be able to decide between his brethren!
6. But brother prosecutes his suit with brother, and that before unbelievers.
7. Already indeed then it is altogether a fault in you that ye have suits between yourselves. Why do ye not rather suffer wrong? why are ye not rather defrauded?
8. But ye do wrong, and defraud, and this your brethren.
9. Do ye not know that unrighteous persons shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not err: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor those who make women of themselves, nor who abuse themselves with men,
10. nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor abusive persons, nor the rapacious, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
11. And these things were some of you; but ye have been washed, but ye have been sanctified, but ye have been justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
12. All things are lawful to me, but all things do not profit; all things are lawful to me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.
13. Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats; but God will bring to nothing both it and them: but the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.
